Joe Frazier vs Muhammad Ali: The Fight of the Century from the cheap seats
Jack Hirsch was a teenager when he managed to get a ticket in the cheap seats to watch The Fight of the Century. 50 years on, it remains the most treasured boxing memory of his life
IT seems unfair that neither Muhammad Ali or Joe Frazier is still around for the 50th anniversary of their Fight of the Century that took place on March 8, 1971. Had they Ali would be 79, Frazier 77. Of the 20,455 who were in attendance at Madison Square Garden, odds are that only a small percentage are still around. I am one of them having sat up in the rafters in the very last row, Ali’s back to me as he was felled by that Frazier left hook in the final round.
